Tradutor Offline

Project files can be downloaded for offline translation. Translators will be able to download files only if the project manager enables downloads in the Settings tab.

Downloading Files

You can download each file separately (in original or XLIFF format), download filtered strings (in XLIFF format), or download all files for a specific language (in original or XLIFF format). It could be done via the Editor or the language page.

Using Export in XLIFF, you will get all the source strings and completed translations in a single XLIFF file. This way is more convenient, as it doesn’t require opening each file separately to translate. Os ficheiros XLIFF são suportados pela maioria das ferramentas de localização de ambiente de trabalho.

Q&A

Q: My XLIFF file was translated offline. Now It contains finished translations, but when I try to upload it back to Crowdin, the translations are not displayed in the project. What might be the reason? A: According to the official documentation, <target> elements in the XLIFF file contain the state attribute that indicates the current translation state for each string.

When you export XLIFF files from Crowdin for offline translation, each of the <target> nodes will contain a state attribute with the respectful value. Below you can see the possible values:

needs-translation – the segment needs translation. translated – the segment was translated. final – the segment was translated and approved.

Usually, offline CAT tools that support the XLIFF file format automatically change the state for each string on export.

Though, if your CAT tool doesn’t change the state attribute for translated strings automatically or translations are done manually in the Notepad, it would be necessary to manually change the state attribute in your XLIFF file to the translated or final value to be sure that translations will be successfully uploaded to Crowdin.
